Why is it so easy to focus on God when we’re at camp, but then we get home it becomes impossible?

This week Caleb talks about how your environment shapes what you do on a daily basis.

This week we had the privilege of having one of our students, Micah Kimer, teaches us what to do when we aren’t sure of what our next step in life should be.

What do you do when your friends around you start making bad choices? Oftentimes we either sweep it under the rug or we get offended and cut that person out of our life completely right?

This week Caleb talks about the consequence of being overly tolerant and how the Bible instructs us to deal with these sticky situations.

We often don’t think twice about a sarcastic comment, an eye roll, a quick jab and general savage behavior. This week Wendi points out that this kind of behavior might be exposing a deeper problem — you have a killjoy in your life.

You are meant to walk not just in peace and love, but abundant joy in your daily life!

Why do some people hear the same message but take it so differently? This week we had the great privilege of being taught by one of our very own students, Mariah Mills!

She encourages us to check what kind of ground our seed is being thrown on and gives us tips on how to help friends who maybe have heard the gospel but for some reason it didn’t stick.

Can someone *make* you sin?

This week Caleb talks about the power that you have in every single choice you make. The Holy Spirit empowers you to find freedom if you will take responsibility, grieve your sin and then make a plan to leave it.

You were *born* to have influence and effect and change the environment around you. This week Wendi takes us through the life of Josiah to see what we can learn about leadership from this great king.

Another terrible thing happened and you know about it because social media is full of people posting about it, and are outraged at yet another terrible person for doing another terrible thing to a person that doesn’t deserve it. This shows that they “care” about this week’s trending cause — but is that actual justice? This week Caleb does a brief overview on the differences between biblical justice and worldly justice.

This week we had the honor of having Wes Gill come and teach us on the urgent need to be real in our everyday life.

Are we showing people our true selves? Or are we just pretending to avoid conflict and embarrassment?

When God tells you to do something, do you immediately obey, no questions asked? Or are you the type that needs more details before you do something? This week Wendi talks about being available, listening, and ready to obey a command even if it sounds a little crazy.
